If you like your GPSr to talk... then its 1 of the con - to me it isn't :mrgreen:
If you like a brand new model GPRs to work perfectly without a glitch... then it's a con - to me, I am willing to have it now and enjoy the improvement via s/w updates.

have you guys (oregon users) noticed that this model always take the 'weird' route instead of preferred route? faster time & shortest route mode still the same...It's annoying...

I've hardly use navigation mode nowadays on oregon unless its a long distance trip or to place that i've never been to...
